Cross Lane, Kermincham, CW12

Situated in a wonderful rural position on a quiet country lane enjoying simply stunning views over the valley and within delightful, very private one acre landscaped gardens, a fabulous large detached barn conversion with spacious family accommodation of over 3500 square feet, together with an excellent detached oak framed building suitable for a gym/home office.

Chestnut Barn enjoys a lovely flow, set around a spacious natural stone floored entrance hall with an impressive wood staircase and high minstrel’s gallery over. There are four receptions in all including a wonderful triple aspect lounge with french doors to the front terrace, a substantial wood burning stove and exposed ceiling timbers, this room opening to a good sized domestic home office, with a range of fitted cabinets and bookcases, which could double into a smaller snug. A glazed door leads out to the rear courtyard from here.

A children’s family room sits off the hallway and the spacious kitchen/dining/living room provides a bright and airy space for day to day family living, also enjoying the natural stone floor and a triple aspect view of the gardens with french doors to the main entertaining terrace. The kitchen is fitted with a range of hand painted base and eye level cabinets with granite work surfaces and a high level breakfast bar. There is a pantry room off and a utility room, boot room and WC. A more formal WC is off the hallway.

At first floor level there are superb high vaulted ceilings with stunning exposed ceiling timbers and the hallway gives access to each of the first floor bedrooms and a good sized airing cupboard. The main bedroom suite enjoys a walk-through dressing area with fitted wardrobes and dressing table, leading to a lower level bedroom space with a vaulted ceiling and a dual aspect including a door to an external staircase to the lower floor and garden. An en suite bathroom provides a claw foot bath and a walk-in shower cubicle. There are two further large double bedrooms on this floor - both with fitted wardrobes, a family bathroom and a separate refurbished shower room. On the upper floor are two further bedrooms - one with an en suite shower room - both with vaulted ceilings and exposed timbers.

The house sits in a lovely position with wonderful views across the valley and all around, and a high timber fence runs all the way alongside the lane, an electric gate providing secure access. The gardens sit mainly to the front of the house with a large flat lawn and huge entertaining terraces. There is plenty of parking and the land slopes away at one end with a wooded backdrop.

Superb outbuildings include a timber framed outbuilding adjacent to the house which provides a tractor store/garage, and also a wonderful home office or gymnasium set up with air conditioning and a WC. To the rear of the garden is a wonderful detached summer house with a mini kitchen, space for seating and dining and a wood burning stove. It enjoys a part-covered and flagged terrace with an outdoor shower and is a stunning spot to work or sit during the day, and to enjoy the lovely views.
